The Robot (Izuocha)

Chapter 4: Life with a Robot

Can't believe it's already halfway over with March.

Ochako swiped the open sign to close as another day had ended. It had already been a month so far since she had arrived at Izuku's bakery/home and she was settling in quite nice.

She skipped over to the counter where Izuku was decorating some sweet rolls.

"What are you up to Izuku?" Ochako had her elbows propped up on the counter as she watched.

"Trying a new recipe. Not only should it taste even better that what we originally have, it even has less sugar and fat so it's much healthier!" He put the last bit of cinnamon on top of the rolls. " And all done!"

Even though she was a robot, Ochako felt her mouth begin to water from looking at the baked goods sitting in front of her.

"Can I please try one?!" She clasped her hands together just begging to dig in, to which Izuku chuckled a little at.

" Sure. I need a taste tester anyway" Izuku said.

"Yay!" Ochako went to grab one before having her hand slapped by Izuku. "Ow!"

Izuku waved his finger side to side. " You've been working all day and moving furniture. Wash your hands before eating." Izuku took his gloves off and washed his hands in the sink.

" I'm a robot though! Germs have no effect on me and I can't get sick!" Ochako stuck her tongue out at him for the slap.

" Doesn't matter. Either wash or no cinnamon rolls for you Ochako" He said as he dried his hands with a towel.

Ochako pouted as she washed her hands and dried them off with a different towel.

"You're lucky I'm water proof " Ochako was still pouting.

"I know. Anyway let's try these now" Izuku picked up his cinnamon roll and took a bite out of it. " Yum! I don't like to brag, but I think I really out did myself this time!" He spoke with a bit of cinnamon on his cheek.

" And now my turn!" However the door had someone knock on it before she could pick up her roll.

" Can you get that please? I don't want to touch a doorknob with cinnamon on my hands" Izuku showed his hands with cinnamon now on them.

Ochako walked over to the door while grumbling about not getting to eat yet, even though she doesn't actually have to eat. She opened the door to find a young man with blondish hair at the door who seemed to be in a really bad mood, which startled Ochako.

"Eek!" Ochako actually felt a bit scared by this young man and backed away towards Izuku. " Izuku I think this guy is here to rob us!"

" WHAT THE HELL DID YOU JUST SAY?!" The blonde yelled in retaliation to her comments.

" Ochako it's alright he's not here to rob the place. And kacchan you can try to watch the language please while Ochako is still pure" He walked out from the counter.

" Whatever, I'm not in a good mood anyway" He scoffed.

Izuku grabbed a bag off the counter and handed it to him. " Yeah well when was the last time you were ever in a good mood?" He asked his friend.

" A year ago. By the way who is the chick? There's no fucking way you actually went and got yourself a girlfriend " The way he looked at Ochako made her take a step back in fear.

Izuku was a bit red at that comment. " No. She is just staying here for awhile, she doesn't really have anywhere else to go. And how come you haven't come by in awhile anyway?" Izuku asked leaning against the counter.

" Been busy with work and taking care of Camie while she's pregnant. And don't use that name in front of others. Anyway, I need that special bagel for her " Bakugo did have a soft spot for people he cared about, though he would never admit to it.

Izuku went behind the counter and grabbed another bag. " I'm already well prepared" He handed it over to Bakugo.

"Aw! You don't seem so bad after all kacchan!" Ochako smiled seeing his soft side which ticked Bakugo off quite a bit.

" SHUT UP ROUND CHEEKS!" He yelled in anger, though Ochako was more confused than scared.

"R-round cheeks?!" She placed her hands on her face and rubbed it with a small circular motion while also pouting.

" Don't be mean kacchan. She's just being friendly" Izuku defended his robotic friend.

" Yeah yeah I got to go anyway. See ya Deku" He turned around and walked out of the store clutching the bags of baked goods.

"Deku?" Ochako asked confused by what Izuku was called.

" It's just a nickname he called me since we were kids. Same thing with the name kacchan" Izuku explained to her.

"Hm." Ochako started to think carefully.

"W-what?" He asked seeing her like this.

"Deku. I think I like that! I want to call you Deku from now on!" Ochako was all of a sudden really excited.

"Why?" Izuku asked confused by this sudden outburst.

"I think it sounds cool and gives me a " You can do it!" Kind of feeling!" Ochako smiled.

"Um. Okay. " Izuku wasn't sure if this would end up being a good or bad thing.

"Anyway time for my cinnamon roll!" Ochako reached out for the roll that had just been sitting there. Izuku gently slapped her hand again stoping her in her tracks. " Ah what now!?" Ochako asked not happy with the constant interruptions.

"That door handle has all kinds of germs. Wash your hands again"  Izuku instructed.

Ochako looked at him and blinded twice.

" Yoink!" She quickly grabbed the roll off the plate and ran up the stairs before Izuku could do anything to stop her.

"Ochako no! That's unsanitary!" Izuku yelled racing after her.

"I'm a robot!!!" Ochako went into Izuku's room and slammed the door shut and locking the door stoping Izuku from getting to her.

After all the waiting, she finally bit into the cinnamon roll and she squealed with delight. " Mmmmmm! Sh gsot!" She tried to talk with her mouth full. She quickly devoured the rest of it and licked the cinnamon off her fingers.

"Ah so good!" She rested a hand on her stomach as she leaned up against the door. She didn't hear anything from Izuku so he probably went to go out for whatever it is he does after work. 'I wonder what I should do now... I know! I'll do another upgrade!' She thought to herself as she turned on Izuku's computer.

'Lets see, which one is next?.... Hm? I don't know what this means, but I can just ask Deku about it after it's done!' Ochako thought to herself as she clicked to install her upgrade.

She powered down to rest mode as the screen said 1% loading on love upgrade.
